Major enhancement to directly connect to the dbms without passing via a sql injection: adapted code accordingly - see #158. This feature relies on python third-party libraries to be able to connect to the database. For the moment it has been implemented for MySQL (with python-mysqldb module) and PostgreSQL (with python-psycopg2 module).

Minor layout adjustments.
